Summary: My goal: working on upload from mod1.py. I expect the uploaded file at /static/img/. However, there is nothing happens when tried
I have never done this procedure before. What I want is to be able to import and reuse function from mod2 in mod1. The mod1 is main. Both modules are in a same root folder. I don't use django. I put an empty init.py on the same directory. Please help suggest a specific ideas relate to mod2.
the structure
root/
__init__.py
mod1.py
mod2.py
mod1 (a working .py):
from flask import Flask, redirect, render_template, request, url_for
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config["DEBUG"] = True
comments = []
@app.route("/", methods=["GET", "POST"])
def index():
if request.method == "GET":
return render_template("main_page.html", comments=comments)
comments.append(request.form["contents"])
return redirect(url_for('index'))
mod2 (a working .py):
import os
#from flask import Flask, flash, request, redirect, url_for
from flask import Flask, flash, redirect, render_template, request, url_for
from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
from flask import Request
from flask_uploads import IMAGES, UploadSet, configure_uploads
UPLOAD_FOLDER = 'uploads'

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER'] = UPLOAD_FOLDER
app.config['MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH'] = 16 * 1024 * 1024
photos = UploadSet("photos", IMAGES)
app.config["UPLOADED_PHOTOS_DEST"] = "static/img"
app.config["SECRET_KEY"] = os.urandom(24)
configure_uploads(app, photos)

return '.' in filename and \
filename.rsplit('.', 1)[1].lower() in ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS
@app.route('/', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def upload():
if request.method == 'POST' and 'photo' in request.files:
photos.save(request.files['photo'])
flash("Photo saved successfully.")
return render_template('upload.html')
return render_template('upload.html')
from flask import send_from_directory

def uploaded_file(filename):
return send_from_directory(app.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER'], filename)

app.add_url_rule('/uploads/<filename>', 'uploaded_file', build_only=True)
app.wsgi_app = SharedDataMiddleware(app.wsgi_app, {

What I tried on mod1:
import os
from flask import Flask, flash, redirect, render_template, request, url_for
from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
from flask import Request
from flask_uploads import IMAGES, UploadSet, configure_uploads
from mod1 import getPhotos
from mod1 import upload
UPLOAD_FOLDER = 'uploads'
ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS = {'txt', 'pdf', 'png', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'docx'}
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER'] = UPLOAD_FOLDER
app.config['MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH'] = 16 * 1024 * 1024
photos = getPhotos()
app.config["UPLOADED_PHOTOS_DEST"] = "static/img"
app.config["SECRET_KEY"] = os.urandom(24)
configure_uploads(app, photos)
def allowed_file(filename):
return '.' in filename and \
filename.rsplit('.', 1)[1].lower() in ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS
upload()
"""
#as a function
@app.route('/', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def upload():
if request.method == 'POST' and 'photo' in request.files:
photos.save(request.files['photo'])
flash("Photo saved successfully.")
return render_template('upload.html')
return render_template('upload.html')
"""
from flask import send_from_directory
@app.route('/uploads/<filename>')
def uploaded_file(filename):
return send_from_directory(app.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER'], filename)
from werkzeug.middleware.shared_data import SharedDataMiddleware
app.add_url_rule('/uploads/<filename>', 'uploaded_file', build_only=True)
app.wsgi_app = SharedDataMiddleware(app.wsgi_app, {
'/uploads': app.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER']
})
There is no error. When I open the /static/img, nothing happens. My research on these pages are not solved: What is __init__.py for? And https://realpython.com/python-modules-packages/
Am I in the right direction? What are your suggestions? Thank you very much for your specific suggestion.
